Significance of the word, Qala, DerivativesAbstract
The study of Qur’anic vocabulary constitutes an important entry point for understanding the precise meanings of the Noble Text, as every word in the Qur’an carries specific semantic nuances that harmonize with the general context and intended meaning. This research aims to examine the word (qāla / “said”) and its derivatives in Sūrat al-Baqarah through a semantic analysis, in order to reveal its expressive dimensions and contextual functions in meaning construction. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical method based on tracing the occurrences of the word in the sūrah and analyzing its various contexts, while clarifying the semantic functions it performs, which range from statement and dialogue to challenge, persuasion, and threat.
The findings indicate that the repetition of the word (qāla) in Sūrat al-Baqarah is not merely lexical repetition; rather, it is governed by a precise contextual framework that serves the overarching objectives of the sūrah, such as clarifying humanity’s stance toward revelation, presenting the attitudes of the Children of Israel, and highlighting the wisdom of divine discourse. The study also demonstrates that the word contributes to emphasizing the contrast between the true divine utterance and the limited human speech, thereby deepening the rhetorical and semantic dimensions of the Qur’anic text.
The study concludes that analyzing Qur’anic vocabulary in light of its contextual meanings is one of the most effective approaches to understanding the rhetorical miracle of the Holy Qur’an, and that the word (qāla) in Sūrat al-Baqarah represents a clear model of the diversity of Qur’anic discourse and its rich semantic depth.
